Description
Bibliography

Mouldmade bowl mended from many fragments and restored. It was found in 1960 on the south slope of the Acropolis.

The body is hemispherical and the rim slightly outturned. The bowl is wholly covered in black dull glaze. In the medallion outlined with a scrapped groove, is a Gorgon head. The calyx decorate acanthus leaves and on the walls two Erotes fly over kraters carrying bearded men’s, women’s and slave masks. Right below the rim there is a groove and band with geometric motifs.
